The heart of the universe

In the center of the Dreaming Dimension, around the fire on the main island, there was a commotion. Red Gimlin was arguing fiercely with Berengarius.

"What a rant!" the old man grumbled. "Stop stealing my jars from the pot, bearded man."

"Your grass is still a weed, and I need to fasten my belts!" the dwarf snapped.

Nearby, Never, his black wings noisily spread, tried to hold Sindri and Gulid, who were jumping around his claws, screeching. The raven's only vest was smeared with ash.

“Stop this farce, you naughty chicks,” Never said, covering them with his wing.

Cyrissa sat a little distance away, gloomily gazing into the fire, while Alfred cleaned his crossbow, sighing at the noise. The exhausted orc Balsmeg merely sharpened his hammer sullenly. Suddenly, a cloud began to circle above the island.

"It's boring! Play!" it squealed petulantly, starting to turn purple.

But the screams died down when Lololoshka appeared in the portal's purple glow. A new creature lay unconscious in his arms—a pale, wounded survivor.

"Newbie again? Lo, you'll soon have all of Archaea here!" Balsmeg clapped his hands.

"Loki-Doki! Who did you bring?" JDH's orange glasses flashed, suddenly emerging from the shadows. "Another useless specimen for my experiments?"

Cyrissa stood up abruptly, her green eyes narrowing.

"Is this a human? If this is an Inquisition lackey, I will personally feed him to the void!"

"Quiet up!" Berengarius shouted loudly. "The guy can barely breathe."

"Silence," Never snapped, shielding the children. "Let the planeswalker pass."

Lololoshka walked silently past the fire with his usual calm. A snap of his fingers—and the power of the Spark obediently wove a small, cozy house on the edge of the island from the mental energy of the Dream. Lo carefully carried the survivor inside, laid him on a soft bed, and stepped out onto the porch.
Several agonizing hours passed. Lololoshka sat on the steps, adjusting his plaid scarf, and waited patiently. Then, from the depths of the house, a quiet sigh was heard. Finally, the survivor opened his eyes.
